gollark: I read that it couldn't actually be unambiguously parsed because parsing some construct required solving the halting problem because the syntax is different depending on some information or other only available at runtime.
gollark: You can lose your sanity through the regexes *and* any other part of the language!
gollark: Only if you don't value your sanity.
gollark: Does exact matching actually work on sound files? It's possible there's some weird conversion stuff going on, and if they're from a lossily compressed source it probably won't work exactly right.
gollark: The enzyme simulating, as well as the folding.
